Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan: Helping Prevent and Control Oil Spills
If you work in the manufacturing, health care or educational arena you may be required to have a Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) plan. Having such a plan ensures that you are in regulatory compliance and demonstrates that you value employee safety and environmental protection. Facilities that follow well-prepared SPCC plans can expect to avoid oil spills that could result in penalties or costly remediation activities.
EBI Consulting’s environmental experts have extensive experience nationwide in designing, implementing and preparing oil spill prevention control and countermeasure programs. Due to this experience, we know what the regulators want and, more importantly, what you need for cost-effective compliance with the SPCC program.
The first step in a SPCC plan is to determine if your facility requires such a plan. If your facility falls under the regulation, EBI Consulting experts will:
- Inventory the types, amounts and locations of oils on your site(s)
- Recommend ways to prevent oil spills
- Provide a design that indicates where potential oil spill will flow and mitigate the effects of a potential oil spill
EBI Consulting's environmental experts have the necessary knowledge to navigate the complex SPCC process and the tools needed to prepare the plan in a timely, cost-effective manner. Our experts maintain strong working relationships with agency officials who help keep us abreast of potential regulatory changes and help to make you aware of the possible repercussions before they happen.
EBI Consulting's engineers and field technicians can also provide the monitoring, record keeping and reporting requirements—including sampling and testing—often required to comply with this program.
